Does anyone know how to remove the red "pilling" that I have from washing my son's sweater?
I washed his sweater with a chenille that came apart. I have tried using tape, but no luck.Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

You can either buy one of those battery-operated pill removers (smooth cover over rotating blades, available walmart/target kind of place) OR go cheap and shave pills off with a disposable, single blade razor...just do it gently & slowly to avoid nicking the fabric! Works well, I usually go this route. Good luck!

I'd go with the lint shaver. I washed socks in with a sweater. What a mess. I used the shaver and now the sweater is wearable. Before it looked like snow or bad dandruff. argh. They work pretty good.

Tape will not work. One of those lint shavers works really well at removing the pills.
